Changes

I haven't been very good with keeping up my blog. I have good intentions and a ton of furniture projects to post, but everything around me is craziness (and I'm not talking about my three kids!) :) If you haven't heard, we are in the middle of a cross country move, from DC to our home state of Texas.

﻿

We have been praying for quite some time about moving back home, with our hearts open to God closing that door. It's such a weird feeling to actually pull up roots and go, even though I know with every fiber in me, that it's what we want and what God desires for our family. It's still intimidating to start all over in a place where people already have bonds and history together. When we moved to DC, we had only been married a year, and it was just the two of us starting over together. It was fun and wild and special. I cherish those newlywed years. Fast forward eight years and three kids, starting over as a family of five is a different story. We went to church in our new town on Sunday, and as we were standing in the hallway, nervously awaiting the Sunday school class doors to open, all I could think about was "thank goodness I have a buddy," of course my kids went into their classes brave, tearless, and alone. God is good. We went into church feeling the big Texas welcome and left feeling like we had a place to make friends and serve. It was a milestone day for me.

I want to remember this whirlwind time because we are never ever doing this again. Ha! Stay tuned! I will post about how we staged our townhome to sell before it even went on the market...our last family hike...and making our new home ours...I may cry :)

Welcome y'all!

Hi! I'm Meagan. I was born and raised in the lone star state of Texas. I like to talk about decorating, homemaking, and being a mom. I am a perpetual re decorator/re organizer and I love curbside furniture.

After living 8 years in the DC area, my family of 5 has finally moved back home. Yee Haw! Join me as we teach our kids the proper use of "y'all" and make Texas home once again.
